Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) on Monday is launching a multimedia campaign to 
draw attention to the involvement of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) in the “Keating 
Five” savings-and-loan scandal of 1989-91, which blemished McCain’s public 
image and set him on his course as a self-styled reformer.

 Pushing back against what it calls McCain's “guilt-by-association” tactics, 
the Obama campaign overnight began e-mailing millions of supporters a link to 
a website, KeatingEconomics.com , which will have a 13-minute documentary on 
the scandal beginning at noon Eastern time on Monday. The e-mails urge 
recipients to pass the link on to friends.

The Obama campaign, including its surrogates appearing on radio and 
television, will argue that the deregulatory fervor that caused massive, cascading 
savings-and-loan collapses in the late ‘80s was pursued by McCain throughout his 
career, and helped cause the current credit crisis.
